Rio Marina Hotels

Excellent dinner

Good location in front of the pier. Good panorama from the balcony! The room was always clean! The only thing is that Rio Marina is a little bit far from the most animated towns, like Capoliveri, Porto Azzurro etc...

The people and atmosphere, the location , the sunshine, the sea. Breakfast food was boring. Coffee not good considering it was Italy. The price was very high considering the quality of the above and the facilities.

The hotel was great a 5 minute walk from the ferry and 5 minutes to the stony beach which was just great. Breakfast was grand most staff were helpful. Elba is wonderful I fell in love with it. Down side no air conditioning in the rooms very very hot not able to sleep! No air con not good

The location is great, 2 mins walk from the harbour, in front of the sea and with lots of coffee bars for a delicious breakfast in the morning. There was an hair in my bed when I first arrived. When cleaning, the staff should pay more attention to this details.

We were told all rooms had a view, which they did not. We were also told the hotel was within walking distance of a beach and you had to drive 15 min to get to one. They did not inform us that to eat in town on Saturday you have to make a reservation. Told them the day before we were taking the first ferry out but no one was there and we were locked in the hotel and nearly missed our ferry trying to find a way out. There is no AC in the rooms and you have to pay 15 euro a day for the remote to use the AC.

Cleaniness and comfort of the room The beach was not a natural one and the staff were rather "off hand" at times although this did not appear true for the guests that they knew better and who were staying longer

It is in a peaceful area, and close enough to Portoferraio so that you can go into town at night if you want - if you are willing to pay for a taxi or have a car. It is very well serviced by public transportation - hardly at all in fact - so that if you want to go out to eat or head out at night, you have to pay for an expensive taxi ride both ways, or rent a car or moped. The hotel itself is fairly nice, although definitely not a 4 star hotel as it is advertised. It has a nice pool and a good breakfast.

It was quiet and relaxing and Management was very helpful in assisting our travel arrangements from their hotel to Roma. Lack of air conditioning at night. The bed was very uncomfortable and we asked for it to be changed and it wasn't. This made our stay disappointing because of lack of sleep. When we arrived the check in staff didn't explain to us that we had to reserve a table each day for the evening meal, this was explained to us on the second night we were there and this made us feel uncomfortable, however they did accommodate us in the resturant.

This hotel was in no way of 4* quality The room was very basic and the hotel was too far away from the centre.

Friendly hotel, near centre of town, quite good food. Rooms giving on to the back garden have no balcony, no view and are somewhat dull. Try to avoid them. The hotel "beach" consists of two long concrete steps over the rocks and water, packed with deck chairs. There a re far more fun, sandy beaches elsewhere on the island.

Staff were welcoming and helpful. Food was simple but fresh. Sea view was beautiful. It was a little chilly at night and the room wasn't heated, or at least I couldn't get the radiators to work. Staff did provide an extra blanket though! Also, not the hotel's fault, but there are no buses and the taxi collectivo is infrequent. Standard taxi costs over 20 euros to Portoferraio from Magazzini and there is no way to walk.

The restaurant was very good (a la carte at least). Very clean rooms. Could have good sea view but we had tree view. Very poor children facilities and the beach was unuseable. Car was a must.

The beautiful sea bathing with easy access to La Paduella beach through the hotel garden. No fresh brioche at breakfast.

Fantastic staff! Okey breakfast but would be better with some eggs and less sweets. THE BEDS!!! We could feel every spring in our beds. Buy bed topp or change the beds.
